Let $i(r,g)$ denote the infimum of the ratio $\frac{\alpha(G)}{|V(G)|}$ over the $r$-regular graphs of girth at least $g$, where $\alpha(G)$ is the independence number of $G$, and let $i(r,\infty) := \lim\limits_{g \to \infty} i(r,g)$.…
We establish sharp bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of sets of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose digits in the $N$-expansion are either uniformly bounded or tend to infinity. For sets with digits bounded by an integer $M \ge N$, we…
In this note we will describe a simple and practical approach to get rigorous bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of limits sets for some one dimensional Markov iterated function schemes. The general problem has attracted considerable…
We give improved lower bounds for binary $3$-query locally correctable codes (3-LCCs) $C \colon \{0,1\}^k \rightarrow \{0,1\}^n$. Specifically, we prove: (1) If $C$ is a linear design 3-LCC, then $n \geq 2^{(1 - o(1))\sqrt{k} }$. A design…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be unital finite-dimensional complex algebras, each equipped with the unique Hausdorff vector topology. Denote by $\mathrm{Max}(\mathcal{A})=\{\mathcal{M}_1, \ldots, \mathcal{M}_p\}$ and…
Let lambda_1, \lambda_2, \lambda_3, \lambda_4 be non-zero real numbers, not all negative, with \lambda_1/\lambda_2 irrational and algebraic. Suppose that \mathcal{V} is a well-spaced sequence and \delta >0. In this paper, it is proved that…
\small{In 2004, Del Pino and Dolbeault \cite{DPDo} and Gentil \cite{G} investigated, independently, best constants and extremals associated to sharp Euclidean $L^p$-entropy inequalities. In this work, we present some important advances in…
Let $(\mu, \Lambda)$ be the canonical spectral pair generated by a Hadamard triple $(N,B,L)$ in $\mathbb{R}$ with $0\in B \cap L$, which means that the family $\big\{ e_\lambda(x)=e^{2\pi \mathrm{i} \lambda x}: \lambda \in \Lambda \big\}$…
Let $I(n,l)$ denote the maximum possible number of incidences between $n$ points and $l$ lines. It is well known that $I(n,l) = \Theta(n^{2/3}l^{2/3} + n + l)$. Let $c_{\mathrm{SzTr}}$ denote the lower bound on the constant of…
For the Gegenbauer weight function $w_{\lambda}(t)=(1-t^2)^{\lambda-1/2}$, $\lambda>-1/2$, we denote by $\Vert\cdot\Vert_{w_{\lambda}}$ the associated $L_2$-norm, $$ \Vert…
For a real number $x$, $\| x\| = \min \{|x-p|: p\in Z\}$ is the distance of $x$ to the nearest integer. We say that two real numbers $\theta$, $\theta'$ are $\pm$ equivalent if their sum or difference is an integer. Let $\theta$ be…
In 1974, M. B. Nathanson proved that every irrational number $\alpha$ represented by a simple continued fraction with infinitely many elements greater than or equal to $k$ is approximable by an infinite number of rational numbers $p/q$…
For every irrational real $\alpha$, let $M(\alpha) = \sup_{n\geq 1} a_n(\alpha)$ denote the largest partial quotient in its continued fraction expansion (or $\infty$, if unbounded). The $2$-adic Littlewood conjecture (2LC) can be stated as…
Let $M$ be a set of positive integers. We study the maximal density $\mu(M)$ of the sets of nonnegative integers $S$ whose elements do not differ by an element in $M$. In 1973, Cantor and Gordon established a formula for $\mu(M)$ for…
In this note, we investigate the regularity of Cantor's one-to-one mapping between the irrational numbers of the unit interval and the irrational numbers of the unit square. In particular, we explore the fractal nature of this map by…
Let $(M,\omega)$ be a symplectic manifold compact or convex at infinity. Consider a closed Lagrangian submanifold $L$ such that $\omega |_{\pi_2(M,L)}=0$ and $\mu|_{\pi_2(M,L)}=0$, where $\mu$ is the Maslov index. Given any Lagrangian…
We prove that the pigeonhole upper bound $\lambda(s,m) \leq \binom{m}{2}(s+1)$ is asymptotically tight whenever $s/\!\sqrt{m} \to \infty$. In particular, $\lambda(s,m) \sim \binom{m}{2}\,s$ in this regime. As corollaries: $\lambda(n,n)/n^3…
We investigate the question of how well points on a nondegenerate $k$-dimensional submanifold $M \subseteq \mathbb R^d$ can be approximated by rationals also lying on $M$, establishing an upper bound on the "intrinsic Dirichlet exponent"…
We show that, for $n\geq 3$, $\lim_{t \to 0} e^{it\Delta}f(x) = f(x)$ holds almost everywhere for all $f \in H^s (\mathbb{R}^n)$ provided that $s>\frac{n}{2(n+1)}$. Due to a counterexample by Bourgain, up to the endpoint, this result is…
